Using structural equation model to estimate nitrate pollution in the Melen Watershed of the Turkey
In this study, Bayesian technique was applied in order toestimate export coefficients for the Melen Watershed.Furthermore, instead of calculating the contributions ofsubwatersheds individually, the whole watershed was consideredfor the estimation of the total load at the outlet of the MelenWatershed using the calculated nitrate export coefficient. ...

Nutritional and sensory quality of buns enriched with soy fiber (Okara)
Dietary fiber obtained from by-products of food industries acts as a potential functional food ingredient and used in baking, beverages and meat products. Soybean, a rich source of plant protein is a suitable substitute to dairy milk. Processing of soy milk leaves behind large quantities of fiber, which could be incorporated in food formulation as ...

Review of electrospray observations and theory
While a liquid is dripping out of a capillary tube, there is a possibility to affect the characteristics of the exiting flow in certain ways. One of the ways already used is by introducing an electric field that can be used to change the average droplet diameter and the droplet size distribution. This process is called electrospraying, while the th...

Mathematical aspects of analysis of maximal pressure-volume work function
The paper presents relation for maximal pressure-volume work for closed systems by using principles of I and II law of thermodynamics, used in reversible processes in which mechanical and thermal balance has been achieved. For full interpretation of this problem for two characteristic cases, graphical review in p-v diagram is given, where in an obv...

Pigmented maize - a potential source of β-carotene and α-tocopherol
Among cereals, maize has the highest content of bioavailable micronutrients in grain, particularly β-carotene and α-tocopherol, which makes this crop the most appropriate for biofortification. Great genetic variability is a valuable source of micronutrients, and genotypes with enhanced grain content could be used for improvement of comme...
